Bob Barker Interview With “Vegetarian Times”
Written by Vegetarian Star on October 24th, 2012 in Animal Issues, Food & Drink, TV Hosts.
Bob Barker has a feature in Vegetarian Times where he discusses what made him go vegetarian and his devotion to animal charities for the past several decades.
His favorite dish is pasta primavera, which sounds like the perfect food to throw his favorite vegetables of broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, and asparagus in.
Here’s what motivated him to change his diet 35 years ago.
“I became a vegetarian out of concern for animals, and I was a vegetarian for a very long time before I realized that many people become vegetarians out of concern for their health. I think they are absolutely right. I think it is the healthiest way to live.”
“I worked until I was 83 years old. The Price is Right is a full hour show. It’s all ad-lib, and requires moving all over a huge stage, doing a different show every day. It was a physical workout and very demanding mentally. I was able to do it until I was 83 for two reasons: 1. being a vegetarian 2. working out regularly.”
“The answer to enjoying life is nutrition. I recommend that you become a vegetarian and exercise if you want to enjoy the golden years.”
